  "abstract": "Experiments conducted with high-resolution infrared diagnostics in both pool and flow boiling conditions show that, at the boiling crisis, the distribution of the bubbles patch area on the boiling surface is scale-free. A simple percolation model elucidates and predicts how the scale-free behavior emerges from the near-wall stochastic interaction of bubbles. The model provides useful insights on how to engineer surfaces that delay the boiling crisis.",
